Letters to Santa

Published: Sunday, December 22, 2013 at 09:00 AM.

Dear Santa,

I was being good all year at schol and at home. For Christmas I want a tablet, Xbox 360, Crayola Met’n Mold, Crayola marker airbrush, the movies The Smurfs 2, Turbo, Monsters University, The Croods, a DVD player, Hello Kitty movies.

I also want a tablet, so I can download new games, learning games, and I could watch movies.

The movies The Smurfs 2, Turbo, Monsters University, and The Croods sounds like they are funny movies I can watch.

As part of a continuing tradition, we are donning our elf hats once again here at The Daily News to make sure Santa Claus receives the wish lists of area children in time for Christmas.

Below are letters written to Santa by children from area schools and at the Jacksonville Recreation & Parks Department’s Winterfest celebration.

Dear Santa,

I do not need any presents because I will be in Disney so do not take your time for me. Just keep my family safe when we are travling. Just get other people their present by Christmas. Make all the big & little people happy.

Your friend, Martha

Dear Santa,

I hope that you and your elf friends at the North Pole are well. How is Rudolph and the other eight reindeers? They must be getting very excited that Christmas Eve is not far away and that they will soon be helping you to deliver presents to excited children all around the world. I am writing to let you know that I have tried very hard to be good all year and so I hope that you will have a Christmas present for me on your sleigh. I know that cannot always bring children exactly what they would like but I have written a few things below that are on my present wish list for Christmas this year just in case you have them on your sleigh.

I will be listening for sleigh bells on Christmas Eve and I will also leave a snack and a drink for you and your reindeers.

Have a great Christmas and thank you for all of the happiness that you bring to children and grown-ups all over the world.
